Anyone can be a hero, but there\'s only one Rincewind--and he believes he owes it to the world to keep that one alive for as long as possible.
Cohen the Barbarian and his extremely elderly Silver Horde are already hard at work planning for the looting and pillaging.
For some incomprehensible reason, someone believes Rincewind will have a mythic role in the war and the ensuing bloodletting.

The distinctly unmagical sorcerer has barely survived more than a few Interesting times and he isn\'t looking to experience any more.
No one wishes to hear those words, especially not Rincewind.
To the fine denizens of Discworld, the phrase May you live in Interesting times is a curse.
